The winters are mild, with average temperatures the same as those in London, despite lying 1300k to the north. Summer weather is warm but fresh, we don't suffer the oppressive heat found in cities and in the south. While daily maximum summer temperatures in London frequently exceed 30°C, we nestle around a comfortable 16 - 20°C - perfect temperatures for all sorts of outdoor activities
